AI Notes

About AI Notes

AI Notes is a two-pane markdown notes app — a searchable, taggable list on one side and an editor with live preview on the other — plus an assistant sidebar you talk to in natural language. Ask it to summarize your meeting notes, tag everything, turn a week plan into a checklist, or tighten a blog draft, and it edits the notes in place while you watch.

Notes live in your browser's local storage. There is no account, no sign-up, and no database: the app opens with a handful of example notes so the assistant has something to work with, and everything you write stays on your device until you send a message to the assistant.

The assistant runs on eve, Vercel's agent framework, and calls the model through the Vercel AI Gateway. On the hosted site you bring your own AI Gateway key; the notes editor works without one. The whole app is MIT licensed at https://github.com/kyh/ai-notes, meant to be forked as a starting point for agent-native apps.

How it works

Each message you send carries a snapshot of your notes: a short snippet of every note plus the full text of the one you have open. The agent answers with typed tool calls — create, update, or delete a note — and the app applies each result to your local notes as it streams in. The server itself keeps no copy of your notes.

It is built and maintained by Kaiyu Hsu as one of a set of small, forkable AI-native app templates. The stack is Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS, Base UI, zustand, and eve with the AI SDK.
